Pet Furniture Plans

These pet furniture plans are weekend builds from plywood: a modern flat-roof dog house with a raised floor and a lift-off roof, a raised feeder whose bowls sit at about the height of the dog’s lower chest, a cat tree with a scratching post, a litter box cabinet that hides the box, dog crate furniture that doubles as an end table, and a stand strong enough for a 125-gallon aquarium.

Use moisture-resistant board or seal every edge, because water bowls splash.

Frequently asked questions

How high should a raised dog bowl be?

Roughly at the height of the dog’s lower chest: measure from the floor to the top of the front legs and subtract about 150 mm.

What size dog house do I need?

Inside, about 25% longer than your dog from nose to tail base, and a little taller than its head when it sits.

How do you hide a litter box?

In a cabinet with a side entry and a divider: the cat walks through an entry bay to the litter box, and doors at the front open for cleaning.
